    This comes after Travis has publicly shared his interest in Taylor, specifically opening up on the brothers' podcast in July about attending her Eras Tour.

    Travis said he was "disappointed" he wasn't able to give Taylor his phone number on a friendship bracelet at the show.

    "She doesn't meet anybody, or at least she didn't want to meet me, so I took it personal," he said.

    Well, it turns out that Jason isn't up to speed on his brother's dating life, after all.

    "It's hard to answer because I don't really know a lot about what's happening in Travis's love life, and I try to keep his business, his business and stay out of that world," he said Wednesday on 94 WIP Morning Show.

    "Having said that, man, I think they're doing great, and I think it's all 100% true. I hope this thing goes a mile. No, I'm joking. I don't know what's happening," he said, laughing.

    This comes after Jason was previously asked last week about Travis and Taylor, saying he can't comment on the rumors. "I don't really know what's going on there," he said on the NFL on Prime Video broadcast. "I know Trav is having fun, and we'll see what happens with whoever he ends up with."

    For their part, Travis and Taylor haven't confirmed the dating rumors either.

    Earlier this week, Travis replied, "Well played Rich…. Well played 👏🏻😂" to an Instagram video from sports broadcaster Rich Eisen including puns to several Taylor songs while recapping a recent Chiefs game.

    As for Taylor, she was most recently spotted in New York City hanging out with Sophie Turner, who recently split from Joe Jonas. As swifties know, Taylor and Joe notably dated years ago.

    Here's hoping this all clears up the Travis and Taylor rumors, at least for now.
